Powering the future of the Illawarra

Endeavour Energy today joined leaders from the NSW Government, industry and community groups to engage on plans for NSW’s first urban renewable energy zone, which will leverage the unique characteristics of the Illawarra region to deliver more affordable and reliable power to NSW homes and businesses.

As part of the roundtable, Endeavour Energy’s General Manager Future Grid and Asset Management, Mr Colin Crisafulli shared how an Urban Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) might combine generation, storage and smart network tools to deliver faster, fairer and lower-cost energy for all customers.

The Roundtable coincides with the signing of a new memorandum of understanding between  EnergyCo, which leads the delivery of REZs, and Endeavour Energy to jointly develop innovative network and battery solutions within the REZ.

Endeavour Energy is now looking forward to working with EnergyCo, local council, industry and the broader community to develop innovative, equitable and scalable network solutions that can act as a blueprint for the future.
